The project turned out in favor of economic boost and development through shipping crude oil to remote areas conveniently. The Keystone Pipeline System would have a total capacity of 1.3 million barrels per day, making it one of North America's largest crude oil pipelines.

Besides transporting crude oil, the pipelines also transport natural gas liquids—propane, ethane, butane, and pentanes—from Alberta to US markets.
